Mini Quilt Swap Update

Schnitzel & Boo organised a mini quilt swap (any size from 6" square up to 24") last October with a postal date in November and this is what I got in the post last Friday!  I love the colours.  My swap partner Christina who blogs over at Feeling Sew Blessed picked bright from my likes list and came up with this gorgeous mini.

I especially love her label and the backing fabric.

The cost of the postage not so much - yowsers!  That was steep.  I posted my mini all the way from Ireland to Washington state for far less.

I even got a souvenir from New Jersey!  Thank you Christina, I love my new quilt and thank you so much for all the work gone into my parcel and paying that postage to ship to me internationally!  It is much appreciated.

Schnitzel & Boo has organised a mini quilt swap (any size from 6" square up to 24").  Having a browse through Flickr at all the gorgeous mini quilts it was an easy decision to join this swap.    Above are some of my favourites.  I normally gravitate towards bright clean colours so am a little surprised to see beiges and creams in my selection.  Must be the effect of Autumn coming on! 

This is a secret swap so Partner I hope you like my choices and really anything goes!  I love stars, trees and animals (especially dogs!).  Of all  the mini quilts above I'm drawn most to #7, the house surrounded by trees in the snow.  Despite the winter scene it seeems so cosy and inviting!  For more mini quilt inspiration the Flickr group is here.
